“RFID has come a long way since I first started working with this technology. It is no longer just for apparel or soft goods in the retail sector. We are seeing it used in many industries for inventory tracking, authenticity, returnable assets, consumer engagement and many others. Packaging suppliers and converters are now being asked to include RFID into their products. The RFID Workshop at LabelExpo was a great way to educate them on how to get started on this journey. Understanding the technology, the behaviours of RFID labeling on products and the solutions available today is crucial for anyone planning to incorporate RFID into their product.” Gary Stegall, Technical Sales Specialist, Avery Dennison Smartrac

“RAIN RFID volumes are growing strongly. This creates, for label companies, opportunities to add value to the label production. The RFID Experience Zone and RFID in Labels and Package Printing Workshop were excellent ways to highlight the importance of RAIN RFID. The activities were great in providing information to converters looking into this strongly growing part of the label market. At Voyantic we are looking forward to supporting similar activities in the future.” Teemu Ainasoja, Sales Director, Voyantic

“As someone who’s been involved with RFID for many years, what struck me about this event and the attendees was how many were brand new to RFID.  This is something to keep in mind with a fast growing industry where it is expected to double over the next 3 to 4 years.  RFID has hit a sweet spot of price and performance fueling this growth.” Mike Weinhammer, Senior Global RFID Product Manager, Zebra Technologies

“I was excited to participate in the RFID Workshop at Labelexpo Americas 2024 – both as an attendee and presenter. The audience was engaged and participated throughout the day, making it an ideal environment for my presentation and conversation. The organizers of the event ran a well-organized and professional session, kept us on schedule and ensured we had everything needed to succeed as presenters. I look forward to the next event and seeing how these vital industry topics continue to impact the professionals that attend.” Michael Schwabe, Director, Market Intelligence, Surgere

Flexible Packaging Master Class 

“The Flex training was quite diverse with many speakers providing insight on this topic.  These sessions were well put together and invaluable to anyone wanting to pursue Flex.  I can't imagine a better way to get so much information in one day.” Craig Curran, President, Nosco

“I was honored to be invited to speak at Label Academy’s Master Class Flexible Packaging training sessions held at Labelexpo this year. This class provided beginners and expert flexible packaging converters alike the opportunity to grow their business by understanding the differences between label and flexible packaging production and the many product choices that are available today.

Although 30 minutes is never enough to dive too deeply into the subject of Sustainability in Flexible Packaging, I’m hopeful that I was able to plant a seed and provide the follow up resources the Master Class audience will need to continue their sustainable flexpack journey.” Dan Halkyard, Senior Director Product Development, S-OneLP

Conference

“During my time doing interviews at Labelexpo Americas 2024, I was able to connect up an ink company with a material company who both needed each other to further their sustainability desires. It’s the best part about the expo is having so many solutions providers willing to collaborate and solve problems” Adam Peek, Senior VP Sales, Meyers

“I’m obsessed with the packaging industry because it allows me to blend creativity with practicality; while helping brands stand out so their products are the ones picked off the shelf instead of the competition. As consultants, it’s our job to guide customers toward the right packaging solutions that fit their product’s unique requirements. By incorporating sustainable options, we not only support eco-friendly practices but also create packaging that speaks to the overall customer experience.” Katrina Edwards, Sales Executive, Oliver Inc.
